Stitch Markers for Knitting
Created by Geraldine Newfry
 



Knitting is all the rage lately. Young and old are hopping on the bandwagon. I recently started a project that needle several stitch markers to hold my place along the needles. Why use boring plastic circles when I could make jewelry for my knitting? And with the new colors of Sculpey III, I was able to use the trendy pink and black color scheme as well. 










10. At this point you can make a split ring, by cutting the wire after it has looped twice around the knitting needle. You could also cut a bit of extra wire and wrap it around both loops for a more secure ring. On the left is a split ring (sort of like a key chain), and on the right I have twisted some extra wire for a more secure ring.


Create a loop at the end of the head pin, to attach the pin and beads to the ring. Wire wrap the end of the head pin around itself for a secure finish.
